I have a lock with a arrow around it and don't know what it is and can't get rid of it. How do I get rid of it and will it stop certain calls from coming in?

Read the User's Guide. It covers basic functionality like this.

Screen orientation lock. Double click the home button to bring up the recent app bar. Then finger swipe left-to-right to bring up the iPod controls. The icon on the far left (circle with lock in it) is the orientation lock button - press it, and the lock will go away.

Upon initial startup my ipad 2 is stuck on the connect to itunes screen.
how can i get around this and start using my ipad2 without connecting to itunes.

If it hasn't got iOS 5+ pre-installed then you will need to connect it to a computer's iTunes in order to activate it.

So at the top of my screen like where the time is... there is this symbol that looks like a lock with a circle around it. It is next to the battery icon. What does this mean?

It's the screen orientation lock. It prevents the screen from switching between portrait and landscape views when you turn the iPod.
To engage or disengage this feature, double click the home button. This will bring up the multitasking tray. Swipe all the way to the left until you see the iPod controls, then tap the gray icon with the lock on it. This will toggle the feature on and off.

I upgraded to iPad2 from original. How do I get rid of original iPad info on computer so I can synch computer with iPad2 info?, I upgraded to iPad2 from original. How do I get rid of original iPad info on computer so I can synch computer with iPad2 info?

I gave my daughter my original iPad when I upgraded to iPad2. I deleted iTunes and Quick Time from my computer thinking it would get rid of the old info from the original iPad. I reinstalled iTunes and Quick Time and tried synching my new iPad2. It downloaded the old info from my original iPad to my new iPad2 and now it calls my new iPad2 Linda's iPad. How do I get rid of all the old info and just have my new iPad2 info? I don't mind that it put somethings from my original iPad (movies, books, some - not all - my music, etc). I can't even synch the bluetooth of the iPad2 to the bluetooth of my PC (I think it's all related somehow).

Why would you not want to keep all of the data, apps, music, photos etc that you had on your first iPad on your new iPad? Don't you want to keep all of that content? You bought the apps, music etc with your iTunes account I would assume so why not keep them?
Deleting iTunes simply removes the application from your computer - not the content in your iTunes library.
If you want to rename your new iPad - connect to your PC - launch iTunes - double click on the iPad name on the left side of the iTunes window and you can type in the new name. Then hit the return key on your keyboard.

Sync the Bluetooth of the iPad2 to your PC? You can't sync the two devices via Bluetooth. You pair devices via Bluetooth but that would do no good for you anyway. You can't transfer content from the iPad to the PC via Bluetooth.

What does the little circle with a line in it mean when in edit mode? how can I get rid of it?

What does a little circle with a line in it mean when I am trying to edit? how do I get rid of it?

robynlwitheridge
What version of Premiere Elements are you using and on what computer operating system is it running?
From your description "little circle with a line in it", that sound like a symbol when you are trying to do a cannot do operation.
What exactly are you doing in your edit activities when you see this circle with a line in it? Is it at the end of the mouse cursor?
Can you post a screenshot of it?
If my first impression of what this is happens to be correct, then "How do I get rid of it?" answer comes from
a. defining what you want to do
and
b. correcting any mis-steps you are taking in doing that
We will be watching for your follow up.
Thanks.

What a symbol of a lock with an arrow around it in upper right corner means?

I have a symbol in the upper right corner of my iphone 4s screen. The symbol is a lock with a circular arrow around it. Never seen it before and was wondering what it might be. Thanks.

There is a purple frame (5X7) around any picture I try to print. How do I get rid of it?

Any time I try to print a picture I get a purple frame which limits the size of any picture to 5X7. How do I remove this frame?

It looks like you may have applied a stroke with purple color (Edit>stroke(outline)selection), or, perhaps enlarged the canvas (Image>resize>canvas size) and filled the enlarged canvas area with color.
To get rid of it, access the rectangular marquee tool, on the tool's option bar select normal mode, drag out the rectangle inside the purple border. Then, go to Image>crop.

My dowload arrow on the top right has disappeared, how do i get it back

Please help with returning my dowload arrow on the top right hand corner, when I open safari, it has disdapeared.

If Safari - Preferences - General - Remove Downloads list items... is set to 'when Safari quits' or 'Upon Successful download'; then it's normal for the download arrow to be missing, until a new download is started. A small download might finish so quickly that the icon isn't noticed.
